Socionext stock is linked to a raised analyst target of JPY 3,920.00. According to Yahoo Finance on September 24, 2026, a Japanese securities firm kept its bullish rating and lifted the target from JPY 3,900.00 to JPY 3,920.00.

Target rises as earnings reset

The target change came against a mixed operating picture. Socionext designs custom system-on-chip products for automotive, data center and networking, and smart-device applications, making the conversion of development work into volume production central to its earnings path.

The same Yahoo Finance report cited a consensus target of JPY 2,517.00 from six analysts as of September 18, 2026. The raised JPY 3,920.00 target therefore stood JPY 1,403.00 above that consensus figure, while the rating consensus remained neutral.

Revenue grows while profit turns negative

Investing.com reported revenue of JPY 39.04 billion for the first quarter of fiscal 2027, up 12.98 percent from JPY 34.55 billion in the comparable period. Net income was a JPY 580.00 million loss, compared with a profit of JPY 461.00 million a year earlier.

The cost pressure is visible in research and development. Envalith reported first-quarter research and development expense of JPY 16.98 billion, up 19.20 percent year over year, while operating income was a JPY 662.00 million loss.

October results date sets next test

Socionext's full-year fiscal 2027 forecast calls for revenue of JPY 215.00 billion and operating income of JPY 14.00 billion, according to Investment Bridge. Those figures imply revenue growth of 7.06 percent and operating-income growth of 13.32 percent against fiscal 2026 actuals of JPY 200.83 billion and JPY 12.35 billion.

The next earnings report is scheduled for October 28, 2026, according to Investing.com. For the stock, the key test is whether new volume production can turn first-quarter revenue growth into operating profit.
